Who could say no to their very own pool home? Especially one in an active 55+ golf community with all the amenities you could ever dream of? This gorgeous Inland-built home is practically better than new; the Elmwood model was built in 2019 and includes tons of amazing upgrades! Lush landscaping and brick pavers in the driveway and on the lanai enhance the curb appeal from stem to stern. The open floor plan sweeps outward from the foyer and front hall, with chic wood-plank tile flooring in the living areas, rounded corner walls, and high ceilings. Need a little flexibility in your home? No problem, there’s literally a flex room that you can adapt to your desires - imagine curling up with a good book in your new den, or keeping an eye on dinner while you finish up some tasks in the home office. It would even make a great third bedroom or guest room for a larger family or someone who entertains visitors. It’s no surprise that the heart of many homes is the kitchen, and this one is a stunner in both form and function! Snowy white flecked quartz counters feature here, along with solid wood mocha cabinets with soft-close doors and drawers. Plus, there’s sleek stainless steel appliances, including a built-in microwave and gas range. Your walk-in pantry will be the envy of your friends and family, and a beautiful subway-tiled backsplash pulls everything together. Whether you’re wrecking relationships with a round of Monopoly or just settling down to watch the latest episode of House of the Dragon, you’ll have plenty of room to relax or entertain. Raise a glass in the spacious dining area - even if it’s just saluting the new day with a cup of coffee at breakfast. Your privacy is ensured with a split-bedroom floor plan, so your master bedroom is a welcome respite at the end of the day. There’s a huge walk-in closet to store all of your belongings. The ensuite master bath boasts a lovely granite-topped dual sink vanity and a large walk-in shower. Grab a towel and some sunscreen and slip through the glass sliders in the living room out to the screened lanai. Sip a sweet tea or a refreshing cocktail as you lounge in the shade and enjoy views of the pond out back. Your in-ground saltwater pool is heated (with a new pool heater) and has a 12-color pool light, so you can enjoy a fun swim anytime you’d like! The water softener is owned, and the water heater and dryer are also gas appliances. The Cascades at Southern Hills is a premier and highly desirable 55+ gated community. Your monthly HOA fees include lawn maintenance (mowing, trimming, edging, and fertilizing), irrigation, cable, and the use of all community amenities. What amenities, you might ask? Only the best of the best, like a new community center with a pool, fire pit, fitness center, and a meeting room that you can use for personal or community events. There’s also bocce and pickleball courts, and so much more. Golf memberships are available at the Southern Hills Plantation Club, where you’ll be able to play on a private signature Pete Dye-designed 18-hole golf course. Southern Hills is located just off of US-41, so you’ll have easy access to Tampa, including the international airport. Downtown Brooksville, with its cobblestone streets, community events, and quaint mom-and-pop shops is less than 6 miles away.
